National Regifting Day〔http://www.nationalregiftingday.com/〕 is an annual observance held each year on the Thursday before Christmas. Many office holiday parties are held on this day, and research shows that 40 percent〔http://www.nationalregiftingday.com/Survey-Results-2007.aspx〕 of office party gifts are regifted—that is, something given to someone and then re-given to another person without use. On October 24, 2008, the state of Colorado declared December 18, 2008, "National Regifting Day," in an official proclamation〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Nv4VdXDiXU〕 issued by the state's governor, Bill Ritter, Jr.. Money Management International made NationalRegiftingDay.com and Regiftable.com to give people a fun way to learn more about regifting dos and don'ts, and to start the conversation on a topic many people are reluctant to discuss—holiday spending and financial worries. The idea of regifting was made possible in a popular ''Seinfeld'' episode, wherein the etiquette of re-gifting is discussed. ==Media references== There have been several media references to National Regifting Day, including the following: * Washington Post, Washington, D.C.: (News Story ) * USA TODAY:(News Story ) * The Motley Fool:(News Story ) * WBKO-TV, Bowling Green, Kentucky: (News Story ) * MSNBC with Brian Williams: (News Story )
